Loki cannot die.
Prove me wrong.
Just when you think Marvel has done away with Tom Hiddleston’s character, the studio finds a way to keep him alive. The fourth episode of Loki is yet another example. Rather than get rid of a Hiddleston’s Loki (or even Sophia Di Martino’s Sylvie/Loki), they introduced even more Lokis.
In the episode titled, “The Nexus Event,” we saw two major characters, Hiddleston’s Loki and Mobius, die — or so we thought. We saw both Loki and Mobius disappear after getting pruned (a word which refers to getting poked with those glowing sticks, wielded by Time Variance Authority agents). But a credit scene suggested Loki is alive, with the anti-hero finding himself in the company of what appeared to be other Loki Variants.
“Is this hell? Am I dead?” he asks.
“Not yet. But you will be unless you come with us?” one of the Loki replies.
What an ending for the episode.
Where is he? Another planet? Another reality? It’s unclear. But we’ll surely find out in the following episode. With such a staggering cliffhanger, Marvel fans lost it.
